The Offspring - Reading Festival 2011 review

'Hits laden with sing-along choruses over well loved hooks'

Hollie Garraway - 26 August 2011

7/10

As much flack as The Offspring get for being a so called ''sell out'' punk band, nobody stood in front of the Reading Festival main stage today seems to mind as they draw in the biggest crowd it’s seen so far.

The good time Original Pranksters truly bring the party spirit to Reading 2011 with an assorted pick n mix setlist plucked from hit album to hit album. The high points, however come from 1998's 'Americana', laden with sing-along choruses built around classic, memorable and well loved hooks.
